What is 5?



This is one of my daughter's favourite Math activities. I hang a large piece of paper on the fridge door and label it with "What is 5?" (or any other number that we are working on). Then we sit on the floor and take turns thinking of and then drawing things that represent 5. Throughout the week, more items are added to the poster as they are thought of. Lots of fun and lots of thinking!

That's a great idea! I wish I had thought of that when mine were younger. I love the bright, colorful work done!
